Review:
Today, schools are required to meet the needs of English Language Learners (ELLs) in all subject areas it is no longer just the responsibility of the ESL specialists to ensure that ELLs succeed academically. Students must also find success with their teachers in math, science, and social studies. This book describes a system of intervention that schools can implement to help ELLs succeed in all of their classes. I highly recommend this book for schools who are currently finding it difficult to allow ELLs meaningful, and successful, access to their education. The book reminds us that if we all work together toward a common goal of student success, it can be achieved. --Tamara J. Chavez, High School ESL/English Teacher and Site Coordinator
